NEW YORK — John Gotti left his jail cell Tuesday and faced the potential jurors who will decide whether the reputed mob boss will spend the rest of his life in prison or walk out of court a free man for the fourth time. Gotti stood briefly and smiled broadly as he was introduced by U.S. District Judge I. Leo Glasser to the pool of several hundred possible jurors sum-moned to Brooklyn's federal court. Gotti is accused of ordering the assassination of former Gambino crime-family boss Paul Castellano to seize control of the nation's most powerful criminal syndicate.
